Best For sweet: Sugar art Edible Gold For Cake

Buy on Amazon

The sugar art edible gold for cake is satisfactory and appropriate and fits well with your daily usage. Luster dust is intended to be dry dusted or painted on top of your confections only. It leaves a pretty luster on the candy but no change to flavor. It becomes a paintable shimmery color that can paint fondant, frostings, etc. It is very easy to use and easy to apply to your deserts. It’s such a finely milled powder that sprinkled on the cake would not give the effect you might think.

The best application with any edible luster dust and chocolate covered strawberries, will be to dry dust the strawberry once the chocolate is fully set up. It can stick to fingers if you are using fingers to put on the cake or cupcakes, but washes off. This is good for using brush and painting gold on your cookies or cakes.

Why We Like This:

Nice product, more dense, compact than expected
Very easy to use and only needed two coats to achieve uniform coverage
Luster dust that is actually edible
